Residential Building Ratingen

Modern interpretation with zinc and wood

A modern interpretation of the Bergisch house was used to create a single-family home in Ratingen, North Rhine-Westphalia. The combination of classic titanium zinc and warm wood creates a special effect. The building, which is networked by means of a home automation system, has a total living area of 283 m². The roof was clad over an area of 180 m² with RHEINZINK-prePATINA blue-grey in an angled standing seam system, while the wooden façade is made of Douglas fir. The attractive contrast was not the only reason for choosing these materials. Because both RHEINZINK-prePATINA and wood are durable and environmentally friendly, and therefore perfectly suited for sustainable construction.
